Item 4.01 | Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant |
(a) On March 29, 2006, Emtec, Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed Ernst and Young (“EY”) as the Company’s independent auditor. The Company’s board of directors, also functioning as the audit committee, unanimously approved the dismissal of EY.
EY’s reports on the Company’s financial statements for each of our two fiscal years ended August 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively (collectively, the “Prior Fiscal Years”), contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were such reports qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.
There were no disagreements ("Disagreements") between the Company and EY during either (i) the Prior Fiscal Years, or (ii) the period September 1, 2005 through March 29, 2006 (the "Interim Period") on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to the satisfaction of EY, would have caused EY to make reference to the subject matter of the Disagreements in connection with its reports for the Prior Fiscal Years.
There were no "reportable events," as such term is defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K, during either (i) the Prior Fiscal Years or (ii) the Interim Period.
Pursuant to Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-K, the Company has provided EY with a copy of this Report on Form 8-K and EY has provided the Company with a response addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission as to EY's agreement with the statements made in this Item 4.01 as to EY. Such response is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this Report on Form 8-K.
(b) Effective March 29, 2006, the Company’s board of directors, also functioning as the audit committee, approved McGladrey & Pullen ("McGladrey”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The Company did not consult with McGladrey during (i) either the Prior Fiscal Years or the Interim Period with respect to (i) either the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on our financial statements, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a Disagreement or a Reportable Event.
